3 Biyosekkai picks in Japanese steel

1. Biyosekkai HPK60 Cutting Scissors. AUS-10 stainless steel and ground to a convex edge. AUS-10 sits at the upper end of the AUS steel family — higher carbon content than AUS-8 and better edge retention for sustained professional use.

2. Biyosekkai Rose Cutting Scissors. VG10 is a Japanese stainless alloy with vanadium additions that support a fine carbide structure, giving the edge strong retention through extended use. The offset handle and convex grind are consistent across both sizes in the Rose line.

3. Biyosekkai WTR55 Cutting Scissors. Biyosekkai, built with AUS-10 stainless steel and ground to a convex edge. AUS-10 delivers higher carbon content than standard 440C grades, giving the edge good retention through a full day of salon use.
